Qt existed long before Trolltech was acquired by Nokia. Nokia spent millions of 
dollars in the deal, and there is no reason they would not sell the assets. 
It's simple business sense.

Qt is not going to die.

Subject: Re: [Qt-creator] The future of Qt Creator

I echo that sentiment.
My company has developed a lot of code using QT and QT Creator (based on my 
recommendation); primarily for the desktop.
I would hate to have to redesign everything because of an OS decision by Nokia.

After today's WP7 announcement by Nokia and rumours rife that Qt is

going to die a slow death is it too soon to ask what the future of

this project is?  I am very upset that the future development of both

Qt and Qt Creator might now hang in the balance as I have based my

career of the last few years around this framework, introducing it for

many projects at the company where I work.  Both the framework and the

tools are superb products and they deserve to survive.



Can we expect some form of statement on the future of Qt or is it too

soon to ask?



I worked for Nokia briefly in 2010 (working on OviSuite) and am sad

that my old colleagues are now worrying about the prospect of another

round of redundancies.



Good luck Trolls.
